Job 8:11-19

11Can the papyrus grow up without a marsh?Can the rushes grow without water?12While it is still green and not cut down,Yet it dries up before any other 1plant.13So are the paths of aall who forget God;And the bhope of the godless will perish,14Whose confidence is fragile,And whose trust a aspider’s 1web.15He relies on his ahouse, but it does not stand;He holds fast to it, but it is not established.16He 1,athrives before the sun,And his bshoots go forth over his garden.17His roots wrap around a rock pile;He looks upon a house of stones.18If He swallows him up from ahis place,Then it will deny him, saying,bI never saw you.’19Behold, athis is the joy of 1His way;And out of the dust others will spring.
